Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, 71.174.80.139. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Combined with the editing pattern of Falstaft, it's clear you have a conflict of interest with regard to published works and theories of Frank Lehman. Binksternet (talk) 16:45, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

-- Response: Fair enough, didn't mean to violate the Conflict of Interest guidelines. Would you mind then looking through the sources I included to judge for yourself if they're notable? -FL

I imagine you're talking about this edit of yours. I would not include Alex Ross's New Yorker piece which promotes you. The Mark Richards chapter is just about Williams' motifs and themes, not generally about Williams. The Spanish book by Andrés Valverde looks good. I think there are too many entries by Audissino so I will trim the oldest and least substantial. Binksternet (talk) 20:42, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
